TODO for adduser
----------------
For adduser 3.x there is to do:
* make adduser also work with super and in taint mode (fix #214546)
* Use --msgid-bugs-address when using po4a in debian/rules
* Address lintian's "untranslatable debconf template"
This is triggered by adduser/title, which is not intended for translation.
The suggestion in the lintian output is to state "for internal use only" as part of the description, but this isn't the case; it's just a name.
* The SETGID_HOME configuration option is deprecated,
as of bookworm+1. Run-time warnings should be added
to notify users of the change; the feature is slated
for removal in bookworm+3.
* The --add_extra_groups configuration option is deprecated,
as of bookworm+1. Run-time warnings should be added
to notify users of the change; the feature is slated
for removal in bookworm+2.
* The --force-badname command line is deprecated as of bookworm+1.
Run-time warnings shold be added to notify users of the change;
the feature is slated for removal in bookworm+2.
* get rid of --no-preserve-root, refuse removing the root account in any case
* define meaningful return values, document them
* remove interactive stuff ("enter group name to remove")
* discuss users_group default
* streamline .conf options (/yes, 1, no, 0, true, false)
* see whether users is default in too many places
